Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomCould do with finishing - in need of decorating, paint looks very old. Front windows don't seal shut so let's a lot of noise in from outside (I wedged a peice of card in which improved seal)
Nice location. Loved the sea view Very friendly staff

United KingdomThe room was old dated, wallpaper hanging off, the headboard on the bed was absolutely filthy, there was make up or blood stains on the bed, the shower was filthy and the room was freezing. Host gave us new bedding and a heater but still needs a very good clean. Lost an item lifted bed up to find it and there was so much rubbish and dust under the bed. The dining room is beautiful amazing looking looks like all spends go into that. I’ve stayed in better hotels for cheaper but wanted to return to Chimes as 4/5 years ago it was spotless and clean.
The host was a very friendly man, helped with anything we needed. Really helpful and nice to chat too.

United KingdomBasic, socket was pulled away from wall and the kettle was there. Dated facilities, probably a good idea to take your own towels, toiletries, hair dryer etc.
For what I paid, it was what I expected. Good location close to Manchester square and a comfortable night's sleep. TV easy to use and shower was good.

United KingdomI liked the hospitality provided and when we needed extra items like toiletries, they were provided no questions. Also when my daughter left her key in the room on 2 occasions, Rick, the owner, was available almost immediately to let her into the room. Even past 22:00 on one occasion.

United KingdomSadly I wish it did breakfast as it does have a lovely clean dining room. Also although my bedding was clean the mattress needs either replacing or a mattress topper fitted.
I liked where it's situated, the landlord is really helpful. Room, bed and bathroom were clean.
